The White House just fired Shirley Sherrod, a Black official from the Department of Agriculture (USDA), after she was smeared by race-baiting right-wing blogger Andrew Breitbart and his friends at Fox News.

It's bad enough that we have to fight the constant smear campaigns and appeals to racial paranoia from FOX and their right-wing media allies. But it's completely shameful and outrageous for the Obama administration to throw their people like Sherrod under the bus because they're afraid to fight back against the lies.

Please join us in calling on the White House to reinstate Shirley Sherrod and to stop caving in to right-wing smears.
